This year’s Massive Music Weekend was certainly of epic proportions. We ended the festivities with an hour of Aztec Moon Cult in the Style of Oscar Wilde. If you happened to miss out on this magnificent piece of auditory art brought to you by the staff at WRCT, fear not! You can check it out on our SoundCloud
This Friday, February 17, Pinkney Hall will be extended for an extra hour, running from 9 a.m. until 11 a.m.. After 10 a.m., we will be playing nothing but jazz. Mardi Gras is just around the corner, so during both hours we’ll emphasize music from New Orleans.
If John Fahey still walked the earth, he would be 73 years old on February 28. On February 25, Pinkney Hall will celebrate Fahey’s birthday by playing his music and other music related to his life.
Requests related to these themes can be sent to wrctpinkney@gmail.com or by calling the studio (412-621-9728) while the show is on the air.
It’s that time of the year again, Massive Music Weekend is almost here! But first, on the Tuesday before MMW (tomorrow!), Shawn Watson dedicates his show “A Minute Pause” to what he calls the “fallen soldiers of Massive Music Weekend.” To explain that better: Shawn will play some of the many artists he chose for Massive Music Weekend but didn’t make the cut.
So, on Tuesday Feb. 7 from 10am until 2pm, during every hour Shawn will play a half hour block (or more) of 4 of the artists from his list. This year his “fallen soldiers of Massive Music Weekend” are: Burning Spear, Adam And The Ants, Thin Lizzy, and The Stooges.
Tune in on Tuesday and enjoy!
